Beto O’Rourke Drops Out Of 2020 Campaign

Hi,

Beto O’Rourke here again.

Today, I am announcing that I am suspending my flailing presidential campaign, which failed to catch fire with progressive voters, but succeeded in alienating moderates and conservatives and making winning in 2020 much more difficult for the eventual Democratic nominee.

New York Times:

“Former Representative Beto O’Rourke of Texas is dropping out of the presidential race, ending a campaign in which he struggled for months to recapture the energy of his insurgent 2018 Senate candidacy on a national stage full of other big personalities and liberal champions.

Mr. O’Rourke made the decision to quit the race in the middle of this week, on the eve of a gathering Friday of Democratic presidential candidates in Iowa, according to people familiar with his thinking. He is not expected to run for any other office in 2020, despite persistent efforts by party leaders and political donors to coax him into another bid for the Senate.

His campaign has been under extreme financial strain, and Mr. O’Rourke’s advisers concluded that proceeding in the race might have meant making deep cuts to his staff in order to pay for advertising and other measures to compete in the early primary and caucus state. …

Since then, Mr. O’Rourke has campaigned doggedly on issues related to guns and race, calling most notably for federal gun-control policies that would require owners of assault-style weapons to surrender them to the government. That’s a far more aggressive stance than most Democratic presidential candidates have endorsed. …”

I tried everything to get you to support me.

I livestreamed myself getting a haircut. I said that hell yeah the federal government is coming to seize your assault weapons. I said this country was founded on white supremacy. I confessed and admitted my own white privilege. I called Donald Trump a White Nationalist and blamed him for the El Paso shooting. I said that Trump was like Adolf Hitler and that it was no longer sufficient for White people to not be racist.

I would have continued saying extreme things like this, but I ran out of money and lacked “the means to move forward successfully.” Good luck to whoever wins in 2020. It won’t be me in the Texas Senate race because I destroyed any chance of having a political career there.

Maybe I will get a job managing a Whataburger.

    • I’m surprised that goofy bastard didn’t get mercilessly ridiculed in the jewsmedia, madam. But then again he was promoting their anti-white, gun-grabbing agenda, albeit ineffectively.

  1. Beto Skateboarding all over the entrance to the drive through and the exit of the building as people are trying to take their food to go while heading to their cars.

    What a douche.

  2. A nasty man who wanted to nullify the second amendment rights of Americans and impose a homo tyranny on Christians.

  3. Aside from the fact that Butthead was never really in the running, and didn’t have a real campaign as such, he can now get down to running for Mayor of Dallas.
